Tai Sheung Tok used to be 419m in height, but because of mining activities by Macau gambling billionaire Lui Che-woo at the Anderson Quarry in the 20th century, its height has been reduced to 399m.[1]
Civic construction work on the Development at Anderson Road (DAR)[2] is being finished, while another project called the Development of Anderson Road Quarry Site (ARQ)[3][4] has recently commenced at the foot of Tai Sheung Tok.
Section 3 of the Wilson Trail runs along the north eastern side of Tai Sheung Tok, connecting Ma Yau Tong with Tseng Lan Shue.
